Chapter Twenty-Seven: They Say Goodbye
As soon as Lin Yue stood up, she saw Lu Jingshuo walk into the private room with a smile and ask her, "Ah Yue, I'm about to go upstairs to see your younger brothers and sisters." Let's go, I'll send you up. ”
Hearing Lu Jingshuo say this, Lin Yue had no choice but to say, "Okay." ”
Pei Yunzi saw that his cousin Niu Kelian and the others had returned, so he asked Niu Kelian quietly: "Cousin, why didn't you leave the sixth son to eat here?" He's just back to the inn like you......"
Niu Kelian looked at Lu Jingshuo's figure and gave Pei Yunzi a look. waited until Lu Jingshuo and Lin Yue left the private room before answering Pei Yunzi's words.
"Cousin, we have to rush to Yanzhou overnight, so we can only find an inn to eat on the way. I have already told General Xue and them, please escort you to Yanzhou, and then return to the imperial city with us. You should also hurry up and take some antidote, and go out of the city with them in a while......"
"Okay, cousin." Pei Yunzi glanced at Niu Kelian gratefully and said.
Niu Kelian said that, he took Lu Jingxiao out of the private room, went downstairs to the stable to lead the horse, and rode out of the city.
In the guest room on the third floor.
As soon as Lin Yue walked into the room, he first opened the door to look at his younger brothers and sisters in the inner room, and then returned to the outer room, busy making tea for Lu Jingshuo. When she made tea and put the teacup on the coffee table, she found that Ah Jing, who was sitting at the coffee table before, had left.
The younger brother and sister rested inside, and only she and Lu Jingshuo were outside. When he left, she didn't even hear the door open.
I really blame myself for being too careless.
Lin Yue looked at the purple sand teacup placed on the coffee table, and couldn't help but have a trace of loneliness in his eyes. Thinking to himself, Lu Jingshuo may have gone downstairs to find Lu Jingxiao and Niu Kelian.
Thinking that they had something important to discuss, they didn't go downstairs to find Lu Jingshuo.
Lin Yue stretched out her hand to open the door of the inner room, and when she walked into the inner room, she saw that her sister had woken up. The younger brother was sitting on the edge of the bed, holding a plate of pastries cut into small pieces, and holding a pair of chopsticks to feed the pastries to his sister.
My sister ate the pastry one by one, and when she took a bite, she had to smack her lips with satisfaction. Listening to her sister's "chirp" sound, Lin Yue couldn't help but reach out and poke her sister's cheek.
This poor sister, in the days when she followed her brother at her uncle's house, could only drink some clear soup and little water, where could she eat such delicious pastries? As soon as there is something delicious, I am very happy.
Maybe when my sister grows up, she will eat well like her younger brother. When eating, it does not make any noise.
After Lu Jingshuo followed her to the guest room, he reached out and opened the door of the inner room only a little crack, and looked inside. I saw that Ah Yue's sister was resting, and Ah Yue's younger brother was sitting on the edge of the bed taking care of his sister, very well-behaved. He whispered to Lin Yue:
"Ah Yue, take a look at your sister. She must have dreamed, and she was very happy, and there was a smile on her face. ”
"I heard from my brother that sometimes she fell asleep and cried. If I guess, maybe she's having a nightmare. Lin Yue said in a very soft voice.
Lu Jingshuo's eyes crossed a trace of doubt, and he asked Lin Yue in a low voice, "...... Listen to your brother? It seems that you rarely take your sister to rest? ”
As soon as Lin Yue heard this, he suddenly realized that he shouldn't tell the truth. As soon as he told the truth, let Ah Jing listen to it, and it was inevitable that he would doubt her true identity. There must be a reason why he asked. After thinking for a moment, he replied:
“…… In the past, my sister was taken by my mother to rest. Not long ago, my mother passed away, and my brother and I took my sister to rest. And I was tied up by Liu Yunmo a few days ago, my brother and sister are at our distant uncle's house, and my brother takes care of my sister a little more......"
"I heard you mention your distant aunt. Then can you tell me that the Wan family from Ma Wanguan's family has ever returned to the Ma family to see it after marrying your eldest cousin? Lu Jingshuo asked suspiciously.
Lin Yue thought about it for a while and decided to tell the truth.
"I have to ask my brother this question before I can answer you."
Although he has the memory of the original owner, Lin Yue knows very little about the affairs of that distant uncle's family. She could also see that Ah Jing's expression was very serious when she asked this question.
He asked seriously, and she couldn't answer perfunctorily.
Lin Yue waited for her brother to feed her sister pastries, she hugged her sister, sat on the soft couch, and fed her sister water to drink.
When the younger brother returned to the inner room after washing his hands with water, he quietly asked his younger brother, "...... After marrying into his uncle's family, did he go back to the rich man's house to see it? ”
Lin Heng thought for a while before he said sincerely: "There should be." ”
"Should?" Lin Yue was puzzled.
After listening to this kind of "should" words, it was difficult for her to say it to Lu Jingshuo. Not the exact answer after all.
Lin Heng pursed his lips in embarrassment, lowered his head and said:
"Doesn't the eldest cousin often come to the city to sell firewood? As soon as the eldest cousin came to the city, the Wan clan would find an excuse to go to the river to fetch water, and it would not be less than an hour and a half when he went out. Usually when the eldest cousin is at home, Wan's is not so grinding......"
Lin Yue realized that his younger brother was still quite smart. Such a small detail was noticed by his younger brother. Fortunately, my younger brother said this, and if I see Ah Jing in a while, I will know how to answer him.
More than an hour later.
Lin Yue pondered, Lu Jingshuo and his younger brother discussed things, and they should have said something about it. Before it was dark, he went downstairs and went to the private room on the second floor to see Lu Jingshuo and them.
When Lin Yue rushed to the private room on the second floor, he found that the door of the private room was locked.
I found a shopkeeper and inquired, only to know that the sixth prince had already left the inn on horseback more than an hour ago.
Miss Pei took some medicine and wine in the private room, changed into men's clothes, and after changing her appearance, she left with the people who came to pick her up.
Lin Yue didn't expect that Lu Jingshuo didn't tell her before they left the inn, and even Miss Pei didn't say a word to her before leaving the inn. It is inevitable to feel lost in my heart.
Isn't she their friend in their hearts?
One by one, they all left the inn, perhaps having left Qinhe City and went farther away. She was still looking forward to seeing them in the inn, and wanted to talk to them about herself.
But they all left quietly.
Lu Jingshuo didn't tell her, and she didn't blame them, because they all had more important things to do. If you say it in advance, it may be inconvenient.
But Miss Pei didn't tell her before leaving, so she couldn't figure it out.
Seeing that there were several more guests on the second floor, Lin Yue had no choice but to forcibly withdraw the loneliness in his eyes, go downstairs into the kitchen, and serve food to the guests sitting in the hall on the first floor with a tray.
When Lin Yue brought the pork rib soup to the table, he heard the words of the guests sitting at the table.
“…… Hmph, I think back then, when my grandfather and the others followed General Xue's army I to attack the enemy army in Ryuyuan, the rich man surnamed Ma didn't know which ravine he was still grazing cattle in. He dared to slaughter cattle for food without permission, and dozens of cattle were slaughtered at a time. This time, he was told to go to Shao 1jiang Jun, I'm afraid that even the gods can't protect him......"
